Forento is the all-in-one platform built for coaches, creators, and entrepreneurs who want to sell their knowledge online without the complexity, bloated pricing, or steep learning curve of traditional course platforms.
Whether you're a first-time course creator or an experienced educator looking for a simpler, more affordable home for your content, Forento gives you everything you need in one place: from course creation and membership management to a full website builder and integrated payment processing.
Unlike platforms that host your courses on their own marketplace, Forento gives you your own fully branded academy. Your students sign up on your platform, under your brand, at your domain. You own the relationship with your audience. No competing listings, no platform fees eating into your revenue, and no risk of your content being buried next to a competitor's course. With Forento's drag-and-drop website builder, you can create a professional-looking academy in minutes, complete with a homepage, sales pages, lead magnets, blog, and contact forms. No design experience needed. No developer required.
Forento is built around the products creators actually sell. Online courses with video, text, images, and quizzes, organized into chapters that can be dripped over time with certificates issued on completion. Memberships with monthly or annual plans giving access to exclusive content, community discussions, or coaching programs. Digital downloads including e-books, templates, workbooks, and planners. One-on-one or group coaching sessions, private tutoring, and live workshops. And a built-in community feed where students can share insights, ask questions, and connect with each other.
Kajabi starts at over $150 per month. Teachable and Podia aren't much better once you factor in transaction fees and the cost of additional features. Forento offers the same core functionality, and in many areas a better experience, at a fraction of the price. Forento was built by course creators who felt the same frustration you might be feeling right now: too much complexity, too many tools, and too high a price tag for what you actually get. The result is a platform that strips away everything unnecessary and focuses on what actually matters, which is helping you create great content and get it in front of paying students as quickly as possible. Creators who have switched from Kajabi consistently say the same thing: Forento is faster, simpler, and easier to use, without sacrificing the features that matter.
Forento is used by coaches, educators, freelancers, and entrepreneurs from over 140 countries. From boxing trainers and journalism schools to startup founders and travel educators, creators across every niche have built thriving academies on Forento. The platform supports multiple languages, accepts payments in multiple currencies via Stripe and PayPal, and gives you the analytics you need to understand your business, including conversion rates, student progress, customer lifetime value, average order value, and more.
Forento offers a 30-day free trial with access to all premium features. You can build your entire academy, set up your products, and start selling before you pay a single dollar. For anyone who has ever felt like the big course platforms were built for their investors rather than for creators, Forento is the alternative you have been looking for.
